Time for a tidy up in the garden?

Utilise 'used' compost by using it to top dress your flower beds, or add nutrients to refresh it and use it to grow something different. 🌱

We can all do our bit for the environment, reuse and refresh! ♻️

Can anyone help @Ecoflap ?

[Ecoflap home draughtproofing products @Ecoflap]

Hi @HerefordHourbiz! We're looking for other companies in the area that have ABS and acrylic for recycling. We don't generate enough for the commercial recycling companies to bother with (min 5 tonnes!), so we're looking to buddy up with a company that does. Anyone? Thanks.

@YourHereford1 @HerefordVoice this is a great way for people in #Herefordshire to reduce their costs of transport esp if they are working from home/flexibly & dont need a car every day.

[ecoShire 🍃 @EcoShire]

How great is this!

[Marches Growth Hub @marcheshub]

#Hereford-based #business Pedicargo is using pedal power to launch a new glass recycling scheme after receiving a Small Equipment Grant

Could you benefit from this scheme?

Newly planted commercial conifer forest can achieve 2-3 times greater climate change mitigation by 2050 than semi-natural alternatives according to a study from @BangorUni
We need to plant conifers now and in mixed plantations for diversity.
